Product details
Overview
TSH94ID from STMicroelectronics is a quad high-speed, low-power operational amplifier with dual independent standby control (STANDBY 1 for op-amp 2, STANDBY 2 for op-amp 3), 150 MHz gain-bandwidth product, 110 V/µs slew rate, and 4.5 mA per amplifier supply current. It delivers video-grade performance: 0.03% differential gain, 0.07° differential phase, and 0.1 dB gain flatness up to 6 MHz at 10 dB gain - optimized for RGB/YUV signal buffering in analog video front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the TSH94ID datasheet, TSH94ID pinout, TSH94ID application, or TSH94ID equivalent, key selection criteria include dual standby logic compatibility (VSTBY = VCC+ − 1.6 V typ), SO-16 package thermal performance (−40°C to +125°C), 600 Ω/150 Ω load drive capability, and unity-gain stability without external compensation.
Technical Context
The TSH94ID integrates four fully independent high-speed amplifiers sharing common ±5 V (7–12 V total) dual supplies, each with rail-to-rail output swing (±3.6 V into 600 Ω) and 4.2 nV/√Hz input voltage noise. Its internal architecture supports simultaneous active/standby operation across channels - e.g., op-amps 1 & 4 remain active while op-amp 2 enters low-consumption high-impedance state via STANDBY 1.
Standby mode transitions occur in 200 ns (ton/toff), with leakage currents limited to 20 pA (IOL, IIL) and standby threshold defined relative to VCC+ (VSTBY = VCC+ − 1.6 V typ). Channel separation exceeds 65 dB at 1–10 MHz, enabling multiplexed video routing without crosstalk degradation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain-bandwidth product | 150 MHz - enables stable 10× closed-loop gain up to 15 MHz with 0.1 dB flatness to 6 MHz |
| Slew rate | 110 V/µs - supports full-swing 1080i video signals (2.5 Vpp, 75 MHz fundamental) without distortion |
| Supply current per amp | 4.5 mA - allows quad-channel operation at ≤18 mA total, critical for thermally constrained set-top-box PCBs |
| Differential gain/phase | 0.03% / 0.07° - meets ITU-R BT.601 broadcast video fidelity requirements for SD/HD component outputs |
| Input voltage noise | 4.2 nV/√Hz - preserves SNR >72 dB in 20 kHz audio paths when used as line driver |
| Common-mode rejection | 80 dB min - rejects power-supply ripple and ground bounce in multi-amp video signal chains |
| Output short-circuit current | ±40 mA - drives 150 Ω broadcast loads (e.g., coaxial cable termination) without foldback |
Pinout & Package
Package: SO-16 (Plastic micropackage), ECOPACK® compliant, 9.9 mm × 3.9 mm body, 1.27 mm pitch, 1.75 mm height. Rated for −40°C to +125°C operating temperature.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 5, 9, 13 | Inverting input (AMP1–AMP4) | High-impedance node (15 μA max bias current); requires matched trace lengths to minimize video crosstalk |
| 2, 6, 10, 14 | Non-inverting input (AMP1–AMP4) | DC-coupled reference point; common-mode range extends to VCC− + 2 V and VCC+ − 1 V |
| 3, 7, 11, 15 | Output (AMP1–AMP4) | Rail-to-rail swing (±3.6 V into 600 Ω); high-impedance in standby mode (20 pA leakage) |
| 4, 16 | VCC+ (positive supply) | Accepts 7–12 V; bypass with 10 μF + 10 nF capacitors per supply pin per layout guidelines |
| 8 | STANDBY 1 control | Logic input for op-amp 2; high = standby (high-Z output, reduced current); threshold = VCC+ − 1.6 V |
| 12 | STANDBY 2 control | Logic input for op-amp 3; independent of STANDBY 1; same threshold and timing (200 ns transition) |
| 11 | VCC− (negative supply) | Ground-referenced for single-supply use; supports split-rail ±5 V operation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent standby control | Enables dynamic power gating of individual amplifiers (AMP2/AMP3) without affecting AMP1/AMP4 performance or stability |
| Unity-gain stable | Operates without external compensation components - reduces BOM count and PCB area in video line drivers |
| 600 Ω / 150 Ω load specification | Guarantees video performance (gain flatness, differential phase) into standard broadcast impedance loads |
| Low offset voltage | 3 mV max - minimizes DC error accumulation in multi-stage RGB signal chains (e.g., DAC → buffer → connector) |
| High channel separation | 65 dB at 1–10 MHz - prevents luminance/chrominance crosstalk in composite Y/C or S-video applications |
Applications
| RGB Video Line Driver | Component Video Buffer (Y/Pb/Pr) |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Driving three parallel RGB signals from a graphics processor to an analog VGA monitor or projector. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Quad op-amp configured as three unity-gain buffers (AMP1–AMP3) and one spare (AMP4) for sync or auxiliary signal; STANDBY pins unused. Use Value: Maintains 0.03% differential gain across all channels, ensuring color fidelity and eliminating hue shifts in high-resolution displays. | Use Scenario: Buffering Y, Pb, and Pr component video outputs from a DVD player to a home theater receiver.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad high-speed op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMH6644MA/NOPB | Higher supply current (6.5 mA/amp), no standby function, 220 MHz GBW | Superior bandwidth but lacks power-gating - unsuitable for battery-powered or thermally constrained designs | Select when maximum speed (≥200 MHz) is required and standby is unnecessary |
| THS4031DR | Single-channel, 100 MHz GBW, 300 V/µs slew rate, no standby | Requires four separate packages for quad functionality - increases PCB area and assembly cost | Select only for discrete channel optimization where layout isolation outweighs integration benefits |
Compared with LMH6644MA/NOPB and THS4031DR, the TSH94ID uniquely combines quad integration, dual standby control, and broadcast-grade video specs in a single SO-16 package - reducing system power by up to 9 mA versus four discrete amps while maintaining sub-0.1° phase accuracy.

FAQ
What is the minimum recommended supply voltage for TSH94ID in dual-rail configuration?
The TSH94ID operates over a total supply range of 7 V to 12 V (e.g., ±3.5 V to ±6 V). For dual-rail use, the absolute minimum is ±3.5 V (7 V total), verified in Table 2 of the datasheet. Below this, output swing and slew rate degrade significantly - e.g., at ±3 V, GBP drops to 90 MHz and SR falls below 70 V/µs.
Can TSH94ID drive a 75 Ω coaxial cable directly without external series resistance?
No. The TSH94ID is specified for 600 Ω and 150 Ω loads only. Driving 75 Ω directly risks instability and excessive current draw (exceeding ±40 mA short-circuit limit). A 68 Ω series resistor must be added at the output to match 75 Ω impedance and maintain video performance (differential gain/phase).
How does the STANDBY pin logic level interface with standard 3.3 V GPIO controllers?
STANDBY pins require VSTBY ≥ VCC+ − 1.0 V (max threshold) to activate. With VCC+ = +5 V, a 3.3 V GPIO output is insufficient (5 − 1.0 = 4.0 V required). A level-shifter or open-drain pull-up to VCC+ is mandatory - direct 3.3 V connection results in undefined standby behavior.
Is TSH94ID pin-compatible with older TSH94 variants like TSH94IDT?
Yes. Both TSH94ID and TSH94IDT use identical SO-16 packaging and pinout per Figure 1 and Table 7. The only difference is packing method (tube vs. tape-and-reel); electrical specifications, thermal ratings, and standby functionality are identical across both order codes.
